A legand story

An adventurous phenomenon to conquer the world with injuries

Sir Adrian Carton had one of the best careers in military history, although the episodes of his life have not been widely raised. Throughout his life he lost one eye by participating in dangerous wars like the First and Second World Wars; Starting from his ankles, abdomen, mouth, head, no part of his body was left out where he was not shot or injured. He received all the honors for coming back with repeated injuries and fighting valiantly. There is no shortage of such heroes in history. Although there are many instances of not accepting the same rate on the football field, the one whose fearlessness comes first and is uttered the most, the idol of the innumerable footballers, the cause of innumerable people's love for football and the means to make Brazil their own for life. The outstanding career of this great legend will touch the memory of the readers throughout the writing.

Ronaldo Luis Nazario de Lima, known for his dribble at breakneck speeds, was born in the suburb of Bento Ribeiro in the suburbs of Rio de Janeiro, to the homeless couple Sonia and Nelio. Financial poverty gripped their family so tightly that it took Ronaldo four days to raise money to make a birth certificate! In order to avoid the penalty of delay, the actual date of birth has to be disclosed. That is why he has two birthdays, 16th and 22nd September. Ronaldo was named after the doctor in charge of his delivery. Unable to pronounce his name correctly, Ronaldo used to refer to himself as 'Dadado', so many people used to address him in that distorted pronunciation as a child. Like the other ten ordinary boys, Ronaldo was lively and imaginative. He too was frightened when he saw the darkness or heard the ghost story; However, all his fears would disappear in an instant while the ball was running. At the age of eleven, his parents divorced in Peru. Ronaldo, who is growing up with his mother, avoids school and enjoys playing great futsal. Once called for a trial at the Flamengo Club, the opportunity was overwhelmed by the lack of adequate fares. He had to choose the Sওo Cristovao club near his home. It was there that he caught the eye of the seventies World Cup-winning legend Jairjinho, who became fascinated with Ronaldo's game and arranged for him (Ronaldo) to play at Cruzeiro. He made his club debut in Belo Horizonte in 1993 and made it to the starting XI. As the sixth player in the history of Brasileiro to attract the attention of everyone by scoring five goals in one match, he is no longer the center of attention. Cruzeiro, who has won the Copa do Brasil for the most time, won the tournament for the first time in ninety-three, with Ronaldo playing a major role. The following year, Campionato Mineiro won the trophy with a record 22 goals. After spending almost a year in Cruzeiro, scoring forty-seven goals in forty-seven matches, he joined PSV, shortly after the 1994 World Cup. Although teams like Milan, Juventus, Benfica and Ajax were keen to buy him, he wore PSV jerseys at Romario's suggestion.

Ronaldo's name was also included in the list of the 23-member squad of the World Cup as a result of his good performance at the club level. The 18-year-old Ronaldo was nicknamed Ronaldinho by his teammates, which means younger Ronaldo, because Ronaldo Rodriguez was the senior defender in the team at the time. The young Ronaldo does not get a chance to play on the field, but he can be part of the celebration of Brazil's long title drought.

Ronaldo, who has a lot of skill, found the net 24 times in the first 28 matches in PSV. In the 1994-95 season, he became the first player in the last seven seasons of ERDVG to become the top scorer in the league after scoring 30 goals. That same season, he picked up a hat-trick in the UEFA Cup against Leverkusen. The rhythm of his excellent performance fell at the start of the second season, when he fell into the first serious injury of his professional career. Even then, no one knew that this injury would have been one of his close companions. After recovering from knee surgery, most of the season was over, but he returned to form immediately after returning and scored 19 goals in 21 matches.

He went to America to play in the 96th Olympic Games without being 100% fit. Wearing a jersey with the name 'Ronaldinho' on the back, he scored five goals in the Olympics. In the semi-finals, Brazil lost 3-1 but unfortunately lost 3-4 and had to be satisfied with the bronze medal.

Although Barcelona intended to buy Ronaldo, PSV made a concerted effort to keep him under strict conditions. Barca tried to get rid of him, but the club's then vice-president, Gaspert Waiter, finally managed to sign after he was able to overcome the obstacles of the hotel bouncers. As a result, just as Romario moved to Barcelona from PSV, so did Ronaldo, who scored 54 goals in 56 appearances for the Dutch team at PSV. Ronaldo scored 18 goals in 20 appearances for the Catalan club in 1998 for a record-breaking 15 million euros. That same year, he became the youngest player in history (20 years) to win the FIFA Player of the Year award. In 1998, he became the top scorer in La Liga with 9 assists and 34 goals in 36 matches. Ronaldo's only goal in the UEFA Winners' Cup final ensured the trophy with the Catalans winning the Copa del Rey. As always in that season, he maintained a good goal scoring average and scored 48 goals in 49 matches. He then created an irresistible alliance of speed and prowess that was capable of piercing any steadfast defensive line.

Ronaldo became the youngest player in the history of the Copa America to become the youngest player in the history of the Copa Am আমেরrica, scoring five goals in the 97th match. He then teamed up with Romario at the Confederations Cup to raise the world's profile of one of the most devastating ro-ro duos in history. In the final match, both of them scored a hat trick and left Australia completely helpless with a score of 6-0. As expected in that magical year, Ronaldo became the first player in history to win the FIFA World Player of the Year award for the second time in a row.

In the same year, he reluctantly had to leave Barcelona due to a lack of agreement between his agent and Barcelona. The 21-year-old Ronaldo then broke Inter Milan's record for the second time for 26 million euros. Although it was a challenge for Ronaldo to adapt to the Spanish environment, he soon adapted to the game there. The second highest 25 goals of the season came from his feet in 32 matches in the world's strongest defensive league Serie A. Ronaldo's role in helping the Neymars win the Europa League was clearly visible; He also scored a goal in the final match with a pair of goals in the semifinals. With his dazzling craftsmanship and leopard-like agility, the defenders were sympathetically disgusted with that generation and became a visual witness to a completely unique game. The well-known 'Phenomenon' badge is firmly attached to his name.

Then came the time of the World Cup in 1998. The inexperienced young couple who looked at everything in amazement four years ago is now the reason to amaze everyone. Thousands of fans and journalists are constantly following him. Although Ronaldo has pain in his legs, he is showing great play by applying painkillers. One goal in the group stage with Morocco and a pair of goals against Chile in the Round of Sixteen. The game ended in a penalty shootout as he scored a goal against the Netherlands, where Brazil won. Brazil was the hot favorite with host France in the final; But the plan of the god of fortune was completely different. On the evening of the title-determining match, Ronaldo suddenly began to tremble! Saliva starts to come out of his mouth and the color of his face also changes! Roberto Carlos, Edmunds were shocked to see him in such a horrible state. They immediately called doctors, who thought Ronaldo had fallen into a coma due to a convulsion or epilepsy. Within an hour, he was taken to the clinic for some tests. Seeing his slow tetala movement, it did not seem that he was in any condition to play. Coach Jagalo can go much later and find out about this. There is still about an hour left to start the game. At that time, when Ronaldo was announced as the XI with Edmund instead, there was a lot of commotion. Meanwhile, doctors at the hospital are in a dilemma over whether to show Ronaldo the green light to play. Anxious, Ronaldo said he would come on the field, even scoring goals! Many expectations and sponsors were involved around him; The doctors were also terrified that if Brazil lost the match because the best players in the world were not allowed to play, they would have to face the cannon. All in all, they agreed to play Ronaldo. In his (Ronaldo's) eagerness to play, Jagalo did not dare to say anything else and included him in the starting lineup. Seeing Ronaldo bowing his head after entering the field, it was clear that he was not healthy. Everyone was more worried about Ronaldo's life than playing. He was advised to refrain from making any headings. Ronaldo, who has been playing throughout the tournament, is no longer to be found after the start of the match. The French caught the ball in the Brazilian net three times; In response, Selesaora is completely silent. Brazil lost the match the moment Ronaldo entered the field; The ninety minute game seemed to be just a formality. At the end of the match, Ronaldo, the most assisted player, became the youngest player in history to win the Golden Ball award in the tournament. What was supposed to happen? Where even a few hours before the start of the match, the Canaries, including Ronaldo, were confident of going into the madness of winning the second title in a row, in a short time, the whole sky fell on their heads and all hopes and dreams were brutally crushed to the ground.

Ronaldo has been suffering from inflammatory pain since the World Cup. He gave the team the trophy by scoring five goals without giving his best game in the '99 Cup. The second serious injury of his career appeared in November of that year. He had to spend about five months out of the field due to a fractured knee in a Serie A match. After recovering from the surgery, he started playing again in April 2000. His knee pain was rekindled as he stepped over in front of the D-box, dribbling through Lazio's defenders in the Copa Italia; As soon as he fell on the grass, the howl of his yawning pain stunned the world. The knee tendon was completely torn and he was again forced to go under the doctor's knife-scissors. He needed to remove a pile of blood from his football-shaped knee with a tube. Many people think that Ronaldo understands that he has fallen forever, and he will never be able to develop that wonderful game. Even to the doctors, it seemed impossible for him to continue playing. His long fifteen-month absence from the field due to the time spent in recovery reinforced those thoughts. The '02 World Cup came without having to sharpen his game in a few matches at Inter. Philippe Scolari wrapped a shawl of confidence around Ronaldo on the world's largest stage in Korea-Japan. At that time, to divert everyone's attention from his injury, Ronaldo kept only the hair on the front of his bald head. His piculia haircut is a great trend of duplication all over the world including Bangladesh. Ronaldo, who has not played for the national team for almost two years, was naturally skeptical of his performance. However, showing all the guesses with thumbs up is something incredible. Opponents do not find any way to stop the unstoppable Ronaldo in every match. He scored twice against Costa Rica in the group stage and once against Turkey and China. After reaching the semi-finals with a goal against Belgium in the round of sixteen, his only goal helped Brazil reach the final for the third time in a row. At that time, Ronaldo was working in the abhishanka thinking that the boat did not come to the shore and sank in the wake of the sudden disaster like last time. Scolari handed him a CD to boost his morale. When Ronaldo played it, a bunch of children floated on the screen trying to draw his face. Immediately his childhood memories were awakened, as he used to enjoy wandering the alleys as a child by painting the face of the great Zico. Ronaldo calmed down a bit and focused on preparation. This time, after entering the field, he does not look as sad as last time; His eyes are full of life. Although the first half ended in a goalless draw, Ronaldo turned the second half into his own goal. Avila's ear was blocked by Rivaldo's shot in the 60th minute, but Ronaldo whistled and filled the net with his feet. Twelve minutes later, Ronaldo got a pass in the D-box and shot immediately. Neither Defender's slide nor Oliver's hand in winning the Golden Ball as the only goalkeeper in history can stop it. He celebrated the goal with his arms outstretched, resembling the Scrite the Redeemer statue in Rio. If Jesus was the savior of the Christians, then Ronaldo was the savior of the samba lovers in that World Cup. The whistle blew at the end of the match. If he had been healthy last time, he might have written history differently; But forgetting that remorse, this time he made history just like his mind. Ronaldo, the event's top scorer and Silver Ball winner, kissed the golden trophy with all his might, for which he is the only one who knows how many obstacles and hardships he has gone through. In the whole world, there could be no one more worthy claimant than him.

World champion Ronaldo decided to leave Inter after disagreeing with the coach. Although he is eager to return to Barcelona, ​​the Catalans cannot afford to buy him because of the financial crisis. Real Madrid signed Ronaldo in August '02 for 45 million euros. Being part of that famous Galactic squad, he had a bit of trouble at first due to injury, but later he joined the team. Ronaldo, Carlos, Oliver, Zidane's fight for the title of the year is considered to be the most competitive in history. Ronaldo won the FIFA World Player of the Year award for the third time in history. The second Ballon d'Or also fell into his hands. The following year, he helped the Blancos win La Liga, becoming the league's second-highest scorer.

With Ronaldo, Kaka, Dinho, Carlos and Adrian in 2006, most people thought Brazil was the winner. But with so many stars, the expected performance did not flourish, so Selesao slipped to the quarter-finals. Ronaldo had only bronze boots at that event and was the first player in history to score 15 goals in the World Cup.

After this failure of the World Cup, Ronaldo is being criticized for his weight. Even at that deadly pace before him, slowness continued to appear. With the arrival of Ruud Vaughan, his place in Madrid also became shaky. All in all he was not able to discover any other way but to leave Madrid; Moved to AC Milan. There, Ronaldo with hair on his head finds out that he is suffering from hypothyroidism, due to which the fat is increasing at an unbridled rate. He also lost a few kilos and formed an excellent trio with Kaka and Pato. But when Ronaldo got injured on February 6, the short-lived flashback to that trio came to an end. Commas withdrew from the game and refrained from renewing his contract with Milan.

To recover from the injury, Ronaldo began training at Flamengo, the club where he had long intended to play. But they did not respond so much that he finally signed in 2009 at Corinthians. Upon his arrival, the Brazilian club received a hefty sum of money from the sponsors. At the club, he opened the scoring against Palmeiras, where his side lost, but he headed in extra time to draw. He was a key member of the Corinthians' unbeaten Campinato Paulista title. Even in the first leg of the final, Neymar was able to score two goals against Santos, one of which was a spectacular display from outside the D-box. Ronaldo could also beat the goalkeeper in the Copa do Brasil title match almost two months later. The Corinthians' acquisition next season is empty, but for Ronaldo, the club is at the top in terms of negotiations and business profits. After losing to Deportes in the qualifying round of Libertadores in February '11, Ronaldo decided not to continue playing. Though he had a desire to play, he said goodbye to Corinthians thinking of his fat body and physical ailments. In June of that year, Ronaldo had the opportunity to play his farewell match against Romania in the Brazilian jersey at the Pakembu Stadium. Ronaldo, who has scored 62 goals in 96 appearances for the best team of all time, expressed his gratitude to his fans, who were always with him, whether bad or good.

At the top of the 1998-96 season, which is considered by many to be one of the greatest influences in the history of football, he was deprived of the gift of a more shocking game, only to suffer an injury. Although the defenders did not have the technique to subdue him in his best times, he was repeatedly resisted by physical ailments throughout his career. However, Ronaldo is not the name of any regret at all. He has achieved amber-success by constantly struggling with obstacles. Especially when it was supposed to be the end of the Ronaldo chapter, he performed his own revival and added more great chapters. He did not return with a single wound on his leg, but returned with the desire to make a great achievement by transforming the physical and mental sufferings of many sleepless nights into his own strength. Ronaldo will always be remembered as the supernatural striker in the human version of the bullet train with his powerful dribbling and extremely perfect finishing, and above all, his face will be motivated to say that determination is the key to making the impossible possible
